I've been trying to figure out if there's another name for sun turtles, since I don't recognize that name. Without knowing for sure what kind of turtles you have, I don't want to give you specific advice about feeding and housing them. For now, it sounds like you've done a good job of making a home for them. Here are some ideas for finding out more about your turtles: I'd suggest you visit a couple of general turtle web sites to determine which kind of turtles your dad found, and then look at the specifics for whichever looks right. This site shows pictures of different turtles so you can determine which species found your family: http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Plains/3550/list.html This site is mainly used by people who keep turtles and tortoises as pets. You can learn more about feeding turtles and learn how other folks set up their tanks (it sounds like your half wet/half dry set-up is a good start-that may be all you need.) http://www.kingsnake.com/forum/turtle This site lists all kinds of books on turtles and tortoises, if you'd like to read more: http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Valley/5314/books.html In general, most turtles are omnivores, meaning that they eat many kinds of plants and animals found in their habitat. I have a western Box turtle, and she loves to eat crickets and snails when it rains (she lives in an enclosure in my mom and dad's backyard now). Her regular food is wet mushy Purina cat chow. Since she's not a water turtle, I hesitate to recommend you feed yours the same thing. Check the web sites I mentioned before trying the cat food trick. Something interesting about painted turtles-younger painteds are carnivorous, meaning they just eat insects, snails, slugs, small fish, etc. As they get older, they begin adding more plants to their diet.
